myDNA Fertility Report – Female

The myDNA Fertility Report – Female is a personalised and evidence-based approach to female infertility providing insights that can identify underlying genetic predispositions, specific nutrient needs, and environmental factors that may optimise health and improve fertility outcomes. This Report has been designed to analyse 34 genes that influence the most significant factors impacting female fertility including ovarian function, hormone balance, oxidative stress protection, and overall reproductive health.

Female infertility affects up to 30% of women worldwide, commonly resulting from conditions such as uterine fibroids, endometriosis, and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Emerging research however, highlights the significant impact of modifiable factors — including diet, body weight, systemic inflammation, and psychological or emotional stress-on reproductive health.

Research has established that genetic variations can significantly influence individual nutrient requirements, underscoring the importance of personalised dietary and supplementation approaches. Many women experiencing fertility challenges are found to have deficiencies in key nutrients, including folate, iodine, iron, selenium, vitamin D, vitamin B12, and calcium.

Dietary choices profoundly influence female fertility outcomes. Diets high in sugar, processed refined carbohydrates, trans fatty acids and artificial sweeteners have been shown to negatively affect fertility. Alternatively, diets high in Omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, fresh fruits and vegetables can improve fertility success.

Key Genetic Markers Analysed:
This female Fertility Report identifies 34 genes that influence the most significant factors affecting female fertility including ovarian function, hormone balance, estrogen detoxification pathways, thyroid function and overall reproductive health.

Key Nutrients Assessed:
This female Fertility Report assesses key nutrients including Vitamin B1, B12, Vitamin E, A, D, calcium, iron, zinc, selenium, choline, Omega 3 Fatty Acids, glutathione, and fasting insulin.

It is of paramount importance to ensure patients with MTHFR variants are identified and treated with methylfolate or folinic acid, not folic acid, if deficient. Zinc, iron, and vitamin D can also significantly impact fertility outcomes.

Key Environmental Factors:
Exposure to pesticides, herbicides, heavy metals, phthalates, and BPA can significantly impair conception, and influence IVF fertilisation rates, ovarian cysts, uterine polyps, and thyroid function. This female Fertility Report assesses the impact of these toxic influences in addition to glyphosate levels.

This myDNA Fertility Report can greatly assist with female infertility by identifying genetic predispositions, specific nutrient needs and environmental toxic exposure enabling the Practitioner to tailor targeted, personalised interventions that may improve fertility outcomes.
